6. Background and Justification
The government’s commitment to maintain and preserve coral reef ecosystems realized through the establishment of conservation areas. This commitment is a priority and the 2020-2024 National Development Agenda, as well as part of Indonesia's global contribution to multilateral cooperation. Through the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) Aichi Target 11 and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Goal 14, it was agreed to establish 10% of marine areas as protected areas or other forms of spatially based effective management.
Currently, coral reef protection through conservation areas reaches approximately 40% of the total coral reefs in Indonesia. The success of these protection efforts depends on the effectiveness of the management of conservation areas. In this case the socioeconomic aspect has a very large influence.
In 2021, the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries evaluated the effectiveness of conservation area management (EVIKA) on 61 conservation areas consisting of 10 National Conservation Areas and 51 Regional Conservation Areas. Based on this assessment, 39% (24 areas) are managed optimally and 61% (37 areas) are managed at a minimum. Optimally managed means that management functions have been running adaptively and management functions have been achieved. While the minimum managed process of design and design of the area has been carried out and the management process has been carried out, efforts are still needed to achieve management goals.
The challenges of managing coral reef ecosystems and conservation areas as well as protection efforts to support environmental, social and economic sustainability in coastal areas are faced with the reality of inadequate data, lack of human resources capacity, inadequate institutions and there are no sustainable funding models that can support operationalization yet.
One of the breakthroughs needed today is in terms of sustainable funding for the fisheries and marine sectors. The current level of funding from the government as well as philanthropic contributions provided through NGOs, account for only about 20 percent of the funds needed to adequately fund the sector. Recently, the government launched a funding instrument called SDG Bond. Of the total funds raised, which is 500 million euros, most of it is intended for the construction of hard infrastructure and there is still very little and there is not even an allocation of funding for conservation activities and sustainable fisheries. This is both a challenge and an opportunity in the form of a breakthrough in the field of sustainable development specifically in the marine and fisheries sector.
Sustainable blue finance is an alternative funding mechanism that will create sustainable economic growth by balancing the economic, social, governance and environmental aspect in the marine and fisheries sector. Blue finance in this project is defined to increase fund and investment in order to restore and preserve that ocean and coral reefs. This mechanism will also help local coastal communities to have better welfare.
